Singapore-based company Sembcorp Industries, through its subsidiary Sembcorp Green Infra, has secured a letter of award for a 150MW inter-state transmission system-linked wind-solar hybrid power project.
The build-own-operate project was awarded by the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI). It forms part of a 600MW tender that SECI had issued.
Following the execution of a power purchase agreement (PPA), the clean energy generated by the renewable asset will be sold to SECI for 25 years.
The project will be commercially operational within two years from the signing of the PPA and will be financed through a mix of internal funds and debt.
The new project increases Sembcorp’s total renewable energy portfolio in India to 4.9GW. Globally, Sembcorp’s gross renewables capacity will reach 14.6GW, including a 49MW acquisition currently pending completion.
The award of this project is part of Sembcorp’s regular business operations and is not expected to significantly affect the company’s earnings per share or net tangible assets per share for the financial year ending 31 December 2024.
